Preparations are in full swing at Liceul Tehnologic Stefan Hell Santana as they get ready to visit Özel Çağdaş Fen Lisesi in Eskişehir for the Green Skills Peer Training Exchange

Their Green Teacher Ambassadors recently met with the parents of participating students to brief them on the project details and introduce the beautiful city of Eskişehir. We believe that true change starts when everyone gets involved. By informing and engaging families, they become a vital part of our sustainability journey too! #GreenSkills#Sustainability#ErasmusPlus#EAIEN

Brain exercises that make life easier

The world is racing ahead, and technology is everywhere. How can you keep up? The answer is computational thinking. It's not about learning to code. It's about training skills that help you: Make decisions faster. Understand new devices better. Keep your mind sharp for years to come. Our project proves that it's never too late to learn logic. Join us and train your mind! www.computationalseniors.eu #SmartAging#MindTraining#NewTechnologies#SeniorsInAction#erasmus#adulteducation

Did you know that you are the programmer of your own life?

Computational Thinking – sounds like difficult technology? Nothing could be further from the truth! It's just a name for what you do every day: Are you planning your shopping? (Decomposition) Are you packing your suitcase so that everything fits? (Abstraction) Do you have your own tried and tested cake recipe? (Algorithms) In our project, we show that you don't have to be a computer scientist to think logically and solve problems effectively. Discover your digital superpower! www.computationalseniors.eu #ComputationalThinking#LogicInEverydayLife#Development#AdultEducation

Masterful restoration, or algorithm hidden in wood

Do you think programming is difficult? Ask a carpenter! The story: Mr. Marco, from a small town near Florence, has been restoring old furniture for 40 years. When he receives a damaged Baroque armchair in his workshop, he doesn't panic. His brain immediately switches to a mode that universities call Computational Thinking. Decomposition: Marco doesn't repair the “armchair.” He repairs the leg, replaces the springs, cleans the upholstery, and replenishes the polish. He sees the project as a collection of small tasks. Pattern Recognition: He looks at the wood grain and knows: “This is oak, it will react to this varnish the same way as the dresser from a month ago.” Experience is his database. Abstraction: When he designs the upholstery pattern, he doesn't worry about the fact that one…

Is Computational Thinking just a new trend? No, it’s simply a “good plan!”

The Story: Grandpa Jacques is planning a trip from Lyon to Vienna. He’s not a fan of complicated apps, but his mind works like a Swiss watch. How does he do it? Decomposition(Division): Jacques doesn’t look at the route as a whole. He breaks it down into stages: getting to the station, changing trains in Munich, and checking into the hotel.Abstraction (the heart of the matter): When he looks at the train map, he ignores the colors of forests or rivers. He focuses on only one thing: the transfer time. The rest is noise.Pattern Recognition: Jacques knows that trains on this route are often 5 minutes late, so he always plans to have a coffee at the station between connections. He uses his experience to predict the future.Algorithm (Instructions): He…
